Holy Cross plays in the FCS playoffs tonight here in Philadelphia against Villanova. They were 11-2 and squeaked by Yale and got whalloped by Harvard. Yet we do not play in the FCS playoffs---unique among all Ivy sports--because the 2 teams in those games against Holy Cross somehow think it will take away from their season ending game against each other. Frankly, that is ridiculous, as is every argument against playing in the FCS playoffs. The Ivies are very competitive at the 1AA level and could potentially win a national championship. The Harvard-Yale game will always maintain its mystique even if the Ivy champion plays on. Why is this continuing to happen???
